I found it was useful to adjust the config file to use different user agents on a site by site basis.</p></div>Wayne Sadlertag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/478265902019-11-12T01:47:08Z2019-11-12T01:47:08ZSite specific override<div><p>It looks like this was pulled in <a href="https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=896114">https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=896114</a></p>
<p>It should be possible to revert that, but the reason they took it out was a non-trivial 9% performance hit, so this isn't a slam-dunk. I might see if a master pref can be used to control it such that if the pref isn't set, the browser doesn't initialize it.</p></div>Cameron Kaisertag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/478265902019-11-12T09:14:49Z2019-11-12T09:14:50ZSite specific override<div><p>Thanks - appreciate that. If it really does drag browser performance down 9% that's an unacceptable negative on PPC Macs which need every CPU cycle they can muster.</p></div>Wayne Sadlertag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/478265902019-11-22T03:12:49Z2019-11-22T03:12:49ZSite specific override<div><p>A first pass is in the FPR17 beta, which appears to basically work with my simple testing. I have decided I don't want to officially support it, but I'll leave it there for people who understand its limitations and risks. See</p>

There is no configuation button in extensions menu like before. Any suggestions?</p></div>Widar8472tag:tenfourfox.tenderapp.com,2012-01-07:Comment/478265902019-12-04T16:47:54Z2019-12-04T16:47:54ZSite specific override<div><p>Please don't tag on to existing tickets if you have a new concern -- please open a new one.</p>
<p>In response to your query, I didn't make any changes to add-on compatibility in FPR17. If you like, please open a new ticket with what version of the add-ons you are using and where you got them from. A screenshot showing exactly what you're referring to that's missing would be helpful.</p></div>Cameron Kaiser
